It can help, but it can also take a while to find the meds and dosage that work for you.
Ideally you could go to the doctors and discuss with him/her how you feel, and see whether s/he recommends meds, and then make your decision from there.
The meds basically re-adjust the chemicals in your brain. But they work best when they are being used alongside some sort of therapy.
But yeh, go to the docs and see what they think is best for you.
